The men that are here illegally don't want to be here. They would like to be with their wives and children or their girl friends and sleep in their own beds. Instead they are in a foreign country where they are exploited and every one is mad at them; even their Christian brothers. They work their butts off 6-7 days a week sharing a house with 10 other guys and sending all their money home to take care of their families. I have found their Western Union receipts in the back of my pickup. Unjust laws have been passed buy bribed politicians and they have destroyed the fabric of community by causing us to blame each other and the poorest among us.
The bible gives us guidelines on how we are to treat aliens nd we would be wise to follow them.

Nafta isn't the cause. The Cause is a system of government and economics in Mexico that is a failure. Unless you advocate taking over Mexico and making it a state of the US, then all we can do is address the problem
